Focus Points
Focus points are special groups that can be used to set levels in cues and submasters by
reference . When you set channels and fixtures to a focus point, they will take their levels
from those recorded in the focus point. If you make changes to a focus point, any channels
in a cue or submaster with a reference to that focus point will play back with the new levels.
This is very useful for pan and tilt of moving lights. If you are touring a show, or if the final
placement of furniture on your set is not determined, you can create a focus point for each
of your focus positions. When you write your cues with reference to these focus points, and
the furniture placement gets changed, you can simply refocus your lights and update the
focus points with new pan and tilt values, and all your cues will play back using that new
focus information.
You can record and edit focus points in Stage or in Blind. In Blind, you have access to the
additional Focus Point List and Focus Point Spreadsheet displays.

data.
